Asus and Microsoft will be launching their ROG Xbox Ally series of handheld gaming PCs starting October 16, according to an Asus announcement that went out today.

One of 2025's biggest Steam games is now Steam Deck verified, two months after its the PC game's original release.

I thought it breathed new life into the Steam Deck even in my 60Hz tests — but next month, Nvidia’s adding its promised new mode that matches the Steam Deck OLED’s 90Hz refresh rate, too. Also, you’ll be able to stream some games with the power of an RTX 5080.

Double your Steam Deck FPS with Lossless Scaling! Unlock smoother gameplay on your Steam Deck and enhance FPS and visuals effortlessly.

As PCGamesN reports, the full spec includes an Intel Core i9 14900HX CPU, Nvidia GeForce RTX 4090 graphics, 64GB of RAM, a 2TB NVMe SSD, that 12.5-inch 4K touch screen, and a 50Wh battery.

Battlefield 6 is a joy to play on PC, but an unfortunate anti-cheat decision means it's not going to run on Valve's gaming handheld.

Mafia: The Old Country is out today on PC and consoles, but how does it run on Steam Deck? The answer is it won't be perfect. Get ready for some frame drops.

The Steam Deck is a pretty fantastic place to play any Yakuza/Like a Dragon game, but as it’s currently summertime, I have to recommend Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth and its supremely silly (when it’s not deadly serious) Hawaiian adventure.

Still, 2025 is a very different time from 2022. Nintendo is back with a vengeance, and there are more powerful handhelds like the ASUS ROG Ally. Even Xbox is looking to get in on the action, so if you’ve not picked up a Steam Deck as of yet, have you missed your chance, especially as rumors swirl of a Steam Deck 2?
